Goals from Raul Albiol, Cristiano Ronaldo, Mesut Ozil, Karim Benzema, Angel Di Maria and Luka Modric wrapped up the win for Los Blancos, who showed no signs of letting up despite Barcelona securing the league title.

Albiol gave his side a dream start after merely three minutes, heading home a Modric corner at the back post, but initial good work was undone when Malaga replied with its own set piece conversion twelve minutes later, as Roque Santa Cruz escaped his marker at the back post to tap home a flick-on.

On 21 minutes, Ronaldo was tugged down by Malaga's Sergio Sanchez in the visitors' box, resulting in a penalty for Real and a red card produced for the Spaniard. Despite stepping up assuredly, Ronaldo saw his penalty effort saved brilliantly by the toe of Willy.

The mood inside Bernabeu was to change only minutes later, as Ronaldo made no mistake from an indirect free-kick from ten yards, blasting the ball into the top right corner - despite debatable positioning from both the Malaga wall and goalkeeper.

Just after the half-hour mark, it was three for Los Blancos, as Malaga fell victim to the trademark Real Madrid counter attack. Mesut Ozil was threaded through on goal by Gonzalo Higuain, before chopping nicely inside Antunes and sliding the ball past Willy.

Malaga was not be be counted out of the game before the half time whistle, however, as Antunes found the net from a surprisingly advanced position. After being laid off by Javier Portillo, the left-back cut inside before unleashing a right footed drive into the top corner, leaving Diego Lopez with no chance.

A forced change of goalkeeper proved to make no difference to the first-half onslaught of Jose Mourinho's men, as Ronaldo toyed with substitute Carlos Kameni, before squaring the ball for Karim Benzema to tap home unmarked in first half stoppage time.

The second half started in a different vein to the first, as Real began to press and exert its dominance as a result of its extra man, but goals and clear-cut opportunities were not forthcoming.

Despite a 20-minute lull, the away side couldn't stay resilient, and it was five for Real on 64 minutes. The tireless Modric picked up a goal for all of his good work, finding the inside of the post with a long-range strike.

Things went from bad to worse for the visitors in the 73rd minute, as Martin Demichelis was shown a second yellow for bringing down Ronaldo, halting the Portuguese international's mazy run, meaning that Malaga had to battle on with only nine men.

Di Maria ended the rout in style in second half stoppage time, firing a low drive into the bottom corner, despite Kameni's best efforts to get down to his right.

Mourinho reaches the 80 point mark in style, and his Real Madrid side moves ten points ahead of rival Atletico with only three league games left to play.
